A post-mortem examination has subsequently been carried out.

A South Yorkshire Police spokesperson told The Star today (Thursday, March 14, 2024) that results from the post-mortem 'show the cause of death to be multiple injuries'.

"At this time, a joint investigation between South Yorkshire Police and the Health and Safety Executive is treating the death as unexplained and enquiries are ongoing," the spokesperson added.

A police car could be seen on Lawson Road on Monday and Tuesday last week (March 4 and 5), following the man's death.
